  1. Ubers is now a tier; a new Metagame called Anything Goes is added; M-Ray is banned from Ubers

    idk what you put on your profile, but it's clearly enticing enough for some people to challenge you. Maybe you made it clear that your team contains Ubers, maybe not. People ragequitting makes you upset? Shouldn't you feel proud instead? What, you want finished battles of you steamrolling...

  4. Pokémon Garchomp

    I'm concerned about how efficient is Double Team on Garchomp, as you only have six turns to abuse Sand Veil. Well, it might buy you enough time, but you're playing with fire if they switch-in a good check/counter. Speaking of which, if you want to roast Skarmory/Ferrothorn/Forretress/Bronzong...

  6. Pokémon Greninja

    ArashiTheRainDancer >prove >opinion Well, you can use whatever you want, nobody is stopping you. There is no need to be dramatic and start threats simply if other people think your cherished set is suboptimal: they have their opinions and you have your own opinion. Full agreement is rare...
  7. Pokémon Greninja

    I'm pretty sure that Aegislash, upon living the Hydro Pump, would destroy the amphibious ninja with a Shadow Ball. Unless victory is directly assured by crippling Aegislash, Greninja should probably U-turn or switch out of a healthy Aegislash.
  8. Other Creative / Underrated Sets Thread (Read the thread, NO SHITTY GIMMICKS)

    The issue of recoil was already mentioned in the post by Alexander. already. Sure, it might be a bummer losing your Mega in such a fashion, but potentially knocking out a fat blob can let your other specially-based 'Mons wreck havoc on the opposing team: not bad!
  9. Other Stall

    You could try running Shed Shell on some 'Mons that are particularly vulnerable to Gothitelle, but that will compromise their general functions. I've only been reading some posts every now and then, so I can't offer anything concrete, but the "momentum-based stall" concept that utilizes U-Turn...

    I vote for CrashingBoomBang's set.

  13. Item Assault Vest

    In previous generations, off the top of my head, Milotic's main merit for usage was that it was a wall that actually somewhat benefited from status. Competitive might prove useful; I have yet to playtest Milotic and other such 'Mons, so I wouldn't know. However, Assault Vest takes away the...
  14. Pokémon Tyranitar

    Ice Beam hits Gliscor and Hippodown hard, as well as destroying various Dragon without relying on Stone Miss. The problem is fitting it into Tyranitar's move set.
  15. Other Creative / Underrated Sets Thread (Read the thread, NO SHITTY GIMMICKS)

    Hm, not sure why I was assuming Flygon would switch directly into the Hazard setter. On second thought, the opponent wouldn't dream of this item/move combination on Flygon, so there's a plus. I guess my two main concerns about the set is firstly, sure, Flygon gets off at least one Defog...
  16. Other Creative / Underrated Sets Thread (Read the thread, NO SHITTY GIMMICKS)

    I'm not sure about Choice Scarf Defog. If you switch in Flygon against a Hazard-setting 'Mon, the next move would either have them hit Flygon for free or set up Hazards once more. Defog, Reset or Defog, Attack... I can't help but think the opponent gets the upper hand. Sure, if they had up a...
  17. Pokémon Togekiss

    I'm personally a little wary of that Assault Vest set - Roost obviously can't be used, which limits the number of Togekiss switch-ins. Scarfed varients at least can try to flinch to victory, but this set doesn't have that boosted speed. However, the combination of ol' Rapid Spin and the new-and...
  18. Pokémon Abomasnow

    If possible, IVs should be maxed even in-game unless you're shooting for a specific Hidden Power. I guess if you wanted to cut corners, a slightly imperfect HP, Defense, Special Defense, or even Speed IV is acceptable.
  19. Pokémon Talonflame

    Unaware Quagsire and Clefable, if physically-defensive, could probably halt the attempted sweep, but I haven't done any calcs. Pretty sure Kabutops, Omastar, and Barbaracle can also take a single boosted hit and definitely KO back. A healthy Aggron/Mega-Aggron will also block Talonflame's sweep.
